The excellent location of this home cannot be stressed enough! Within minutes, you are out of Snake Creek and heading to the ocean or out on the beautiful bayside. The split suite design makes it very easy for traveling with two families. We very much enjoyed our stay and Arlene was extremely friendly!
Very nice property, not perfect. Property doesn't have a dishwasher and is at the end of the canal which collected a lot of debris. The property was close to Fishing, Snorkeling, Restaurants and the Sand bar. Would definitely rent again
Three generations of our family stayed last week. Great location and nicely appointed/stocked house. 4 separate bedrooms a +++ for us. House is on a quite canal minutes from the Atlantic or backside via Snake Creek. Plenty of room for us to dock our boat. Teen grand kids fished right off the dock and allowed adults to relax. Host, Arlene, was very responsive and returned text quickly. 100% recommended!
AC issues, outdoor furniture on the canal was ripped,
No gas for the grill, downstairs slider wouldnât open, and if you want the hot tub to be hot, you have to pay to have the pool heated.
The host was good and always answered her texts/calls.
Neighborhood is great.
The property was more than we expected. It had a great location with all the comforts of home. The check in process seamless and the host was very thorough on where everything was located. There were plenty of towels, kitchen supplies and out door furniture. The properties two units was just what we needed for our family it gives everyone some privacy but yet let's us spend some quality time together. I would highly recommend the property and can't wait for our next visit.
The house is an older home. It is a 2 story apartment house up stair and a down stairs apartments. We didn't realize this. We thought it was a 4 bedroom house. It's in a good location in the area. The house has a great dock and located close to the bridge for easy access so you can go to the ocean side or the bay side. It definitely needs to be updated.
Great neighborhood. Everyone was very friendly. Enjoyed the
Manatee that visited, watching the sun come up on the screened porch, afternoons and evening in the pool and hot tub.
We could not have picked a better week of sun and warm weather with family and friends.
Upstairs and downstairs were not accessible without going outside needed broom and mop. One dish rag and one hand towel per bathroom was inconvenient since clean ones are needed daily. Pool was clean. Property clean. Nice place to stay.
We have been renting properties for the past 20 years and never experienced anything like this in our lives. First there was the boat rental. The owner presented a weekly or 3-day price for rental and when we told her we would take it, she said she had to raise the rate to a holiday/weekend rate which was never mentioned in the first place. The owner's pricing was inconsistent and prior to arrival we decided not to rent the boat. We travelled via plane and rental car to get to this house (VRBO requested we not include the property # in this review), only to find out upon arrival it was a different house than what was shown in the contract. It was an entirely different house. Different color. Different rooms. No dock. Even a different name. When we got there, the front door was wide open. The neighbor had their boat plugged into this property's outlet. The refrigerator was leaking. It was dirty. We contacted the owner thinking she had possibly given us the wrong address but she tried to claim that we knew she was switching the houses which was entirely untrue. Her only response to us was if you don't like it you can leave. She was rude and unprofessional. Not once did the owner try to fix this she just maintained that we can leave if we didn't like it. We left shortly after arrival, filed a claim with VRBO and thankfully VRBO made it right by setting us up elsewhere. We sincerely hope no one has to deal with something like this in the future.
Great location with a boat rental company very close. Easy access to bay or Atlantic. Close to many places to visit, Founders Park, Theater of the see, etc. Fantastic place for family and friends with a pool. Owner was very responsive to any questions I had prior to rental, will no doubt stay here again!
This was a excellent property with great location! By water accessing the gulf and ocean side takes just minutes through Snake Creek. By car you have multiple options for restaurants, bars, and shops within 10 minutes. The house was clean and there was ample parking for three cars and a boat trailer. Arlene was very responsive to questions prior to and throughout our stay. We will be looking to return!
We had a great, one-week stay. Excellent location, nice pool, gated yard and plenty of dock space that has recently been redone. The house was spotless, everything works well and Arlene was a terrific and extremely accommodating host.
We will gladly return!
We had a great stay for this boat mini lobster season and the house was in an amazing location in islamorada. We had the boat dock just behind the house, so we could use it as much as we wanted. The canal itâs located on gives you access to the Atlantic and Gulf sides in mere minutes. The house has a pool, which cane in handy everyday. It also had enough room for our family To stay and park 3 cars with a trailer. The only thing it is missing with the house is a dishwasher and it also has a little bit of a leaning feeling, but when you are on the boat most of the time, itâs no big deal.
A perfect house for 2 families that want direct ocean and bay access very quickly. The house is set up like 2 condos, downstairs and upstairs are seperate but on the same property so you can share the house with another family and still have your own space. Great house managed very well that we will 1000% book again!
This is the second time we have rented this home. The set up is perfect for multiple families and the owner is very responsive with any questions. We will be back!
House was nice especially the pool. We love renting in this neighborhood because of the close proximity to both the Gulf and the Ocean and the reefs. Property manager responded quickly. We had a little issue with the washing machine the last day not finishing the cycle but other than that all was well
